My dream was nucll
-f came.
t dreamed a luw gray cottage,
, flume:
Tha soft light from the open door flunK path-like to my feet.
And In the starlit Harden dusk the flower-breath stirrini: sweet;
Myself upon the grass-rlmmed flacs In cotton cown of blue.
With work-worn hands and weary lips thut bravely smiled for
1 ; you.
Korttotten all the Ions day's toil, the small thlncs cone amiss.
To find fresh peace within your arms, and heaven in your kiss.
Mydrcam was such a humblo tiling compared to that which
'--. came,
A low uray cottage clasped with vines, a hearth's red evening
flame,
The rush-lit pewter gleaming bright, the kettle on the crane.
And huwthorn branches white with stars against the luticed
pane.
My cottage turned a mansion high where stone-gray gables raise,
Where peacocks gem the terrace-turf, and untlered vagrants
graze.
And all my dream-sweet posy beds of pinks and mignonette
Are grown to inany-acred bloom in gleaming marble set;
And I. I wait your coming, dear, when slants the evening light.
All clad in robes of shlmmeredf silk, with still hands soft and
white,
With clasping pearls about my throat, mid bound within my
hair
rerlmps you might havo kissed mo, dear, were not the servants
there!
My dream was such a humble thing compared to all that came,
The littlo vine-hung cottage, and the hearth-stones evening
flame.
And yet I wonder why at dusk, when I am quite alone,
1 only see the soft light fold a oottngo llntel-stonc.

Household Hints
To Decorate Cake When mak-
ing birthdav cakes, try using the . s"" uy running wun a ciotn
noodle alphabet and numerals for wrunff uut of lcm,m juice
decorating. Cook until soft in :
water which has been colored with
ii vegct.-ible coloring, drain and
dry. After the icing has been put
on the cuke, put these little letters i
on by writing the name, date. etc.
This is especially nice for chil
dren's birthday cakes.
Washing Cilassware Whn
Washing glassware do not put it in
hot water bottom first, as it may
crack from the. sudden expansion.
Kvon d&icate glass con be safely
Washed in very hot water if slip
ped In edgewise.
Lunchton in n Hurry X nice
luncheon that can be . prepared
from what Is in the bouse consists j
of tuna fish nu gratin. baked pota
toes, hot muffins, homemade pre
serves and tea or chocolate.
Dainty Puddings Cherry time
is approaching try your next
cherry pudding by taking in tiny
baking powder cans for individual
servings. Fill only 1-3 full.
Save Tissue Paper All that tis
sue paper left from packages can
be saved and used to wipe the win
dows. Watch the glass shine after
such a treatment.
Save Vinegar -When using pick
Icy, save the vinegar in whieh they
are preserved. It is fine lo use on
salads and greens, for It is so well
flavored- It may be used also on
slaws and muking chow-chow.
Vinegar from sweet peach or pear
pieMc give a particularly delicious
flavor lo dried apples and apple
sauce. To Save Cotton Cloth and also
labor In cleaning same, keep a
package of paper towels in the
kitchen for wiping up grease that
has dropped upon the table or
floor, or wiping out frying pans.
Time Saver- If you are enter
taining week-end guests. It is pos
sible to mix Sunday morning's

Bring the Belt
Back Into Favor
Of course belts have never really
left us entirely, but for several
yem-s they Jiavt- refrained from I
drawing 'attention to themselves to I
any extent. Now with the waist
line threatening to become an ac
complished fact, t tie oclt takes on
new importance. Narrow ones anil
wide ones, leather ones and silk
ones are to be seen on almost
every frock. ICven the evening
from Is not to be outdone, and fre
quently uses some form of the belt
or sash to accent the close fitting
hiptfne. A belt nearly always ac
companies the sports frock or cos
tume, usually a narrow one of soft
kidskln. in a matching or sharply
contrasting shade.

the greenhouses the vines mount

of the vines . during cold weather.
The cucumber vine may be
trained on strings up a sunny back

I Aits of us like lo think of today as the day of real fifty
fifty imrlnei'iiblps In iniirilase. however much they may seem
partnci-Nhips ton eaully dissolved. Hot the bealthicsl sin of
such times us yet lies In the fact that a large number of men
seniors at the Iowa Stale college are studying home-making this
year in a course In the essentials of home management.
The course Includes application of the budget system, causes
for Instability in the home and the possibility of Improved rela
tions between men and women.
While ibesu tilings only lightly touch on the complicated
thing that bome-maklng Is. It's encouruglng that men are suf
ficiently interested to seriously study a subject hitherlti some
what regarded as woman s province, entirely authoritative In
formation for which she was supposed to have casually plucked
from the heavens or somewhere.
lloiiies belong to everybody In them and the more clarity of
understanding there can be concerning all the problems thereof,
the sooner will come that halcyon day when marriage is really a
fifty-fifty proposition and a real partnership. Antl Incidentally,
such understanding will, of course, go a long way towards
obviating causes of friction too frequently resulting In the said
hasty dissolving of such partnerships. In which event, sliced
the day and long live such courses In homo-making ami espe
cially for the men.
Kor perhaps If the Iden can become prevalent enough
among them and we call gel more of them lo take this impor
tant course while young, the lime may even be dawning when
men will not only eventualy understand all the ramifications
of home-making but get a slight glimmering as to what on earth
women do with their time all day and what wives do with the
dollar and a half given them last week!
